At Cornerstone, we are here to be your most trusted resource, verifying your building’s optimal performance.
Backed by our far-reaching industry experience and noteworthy expertise, Cornerstone’s approach includes assessing the specific needs of each project.

By engaging Cornerstone during the design phase of your new construction or renovation projects, we can glean the most valuable insights shared during envisioning and planning.
We leverage the knowledge gained in the early phases of the process to assist owners in making informed decisions as to, for instance, the size of mechanical and electrical systems. Correctly navigating the decision process during design often greatly reduces the operating costs of the building.
Building commissioning services provide a multitude of benefits to construction projects, enhancing the efficiency and functionality of building systems. Here’s a closer look at the key benefits of commissioning:
One of the primary advantages is increased energy efficiency. By verifying that all systems are designed, installed, and operating correctly, commissioning helps minimize energy waste and optimize performance. This reduces operational costs while supporting environmental sustainability by lowering the building’s carbon footprint.
Another critical benefit of commissioning is the early detection and resolution of issues. Commissioning services involve thorough testing and inspections, which can identify potential problems before they become costly delays or necessitate rework. This proactive approach verifies that the project remains on schedule and within budget, reducing the risk of unexpected expenses and downtime.
Commissioning also verifies compliance with safety and regulatory standards. It enhances the safety and reliability of the building by confirming that all systems meet the required codes and guidelines. Laboratory commissioning is particularly important for complex facilities such as labs and healthcare buildings, where system failures can have significant consequences.
Improved occupant comfort and satisfaction are additional benefits of building commissioning. Properly commissioned systems provide better indoor air quality, consistent temperature control, and improved environmental conditions. This leads to a more comfortable and productive environment for building occupants. Moreover, commissioning services include comprehensive documentation and training for facility staff, so they are well-equipped to maintain and operate the building systems efficiently.
Commissioning services play a vital role in delivering high-performing, efficient, and reliable buildings that meet the needs of both owners and occupants. By investing in commissioning, project stakeholders can enjoy long-term benefits and reduced operational costs, while supporting sustainability and safety objectives.
